Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 276: Tina, Was It You?

Velma Lehman glared at everyone present, cursing under her breath. She then turned to Tina and said, "The

Lehman family may not be prominent in Ashbury, but my great-uncle holds sinfluence here. If anyone dares

to trouble you, we'll be the first to stand by you." These words weren't just Velma's own; she considered Tina her

best friend and was ready to defend her, even if she lacked the means. This protective stance was actually

something her grandparents and parents had insisted she adopt before coming to Ashbury. Tina had done a

favor for the Lehman family, and they were determined to repay it.

Her parents were concerned about Tina's well-being in the Reed family's territory, hence Velma's declaration.

They were late to the party and unaware of the earlier events. On their way there, Albert Sitwell had seen a live

stream on Cactus's channel mentioning Miss Reed, which immediately set off alarms, prompting them to hurry.

Upon arriving at the banquet hall, they overheard accusations of Mack being kidnapped and blamed on Tina,

which Velma could not tolerate. "Bully Tina? They'll have to deal with all forty students of Class 22D first," she

thought. Tina smiled slightly, "Okay."

She accepted kindness from everyone and promised to reciprocate it. The Reed family and guests were

interrupted by this unexpected episode. Jasper was the first to recover, asking, "Tina, what just happened? Mack,

he..." Tina's gaze turned cold, "Mr. Reed, your nephew drugged my dress and had prepared a man for some

deed."

As soon as she finished, the public screen lit up again, this tshowing a clear image of Mack, his face bruised,

engaged in unspeakable acts with another man.

Syounger girls screamed and covered their eyes. The older attendees frowned and cursed, "This is

outrageous! How does the Emerson family raise their children? Doing such things in public is disgraceful!" "There

were rumors about Mr. Emerson's secrets, especially his taste in men, but this-broadcasting such filth-I'm

appalled!"

"Report this! What kind of person does this?"

Tina stared at the screen, momentarily stunned. Then, looking at Jared Farrell, her eyes inquired, "Did you do

this?"

Someone had attempted to kidnap her, but she had sensed it coming and let it happen to Mack instead. She

hadn't expected it to end up on a live stream again.

Jared Farrell raised an eyebrow, "Anyone who dares touch you will face the consequences."

Tina remained silent. "Well, my uncle is quite the hero," she thought, appreciating the reliance on her uncle.

Suddenly, Liliosa, who had just noticed Tina descending the stairs and Mack being kidnapped during the live

stream, screamed, "Ah! Mack!"

She rushed to Tina, glaring resentfully, "It was you, wasn't it? Why are you so cruel? He's your cousin! You forced

him to stream earlier, humiliating him, and now you won't let him go?"

Liliosa tried to grab Tina, who swiftly dodged, leaving Liliosa grabbing at air. Fuming, Liliosa declared, "Tina, |

won't let you get away with this!"

She turned to a servant brought by the Emerson family, "What are you waiting for? Bring the young master

here!"

The servant quickly headed upstairs. The noises from the live stream grew more intolerable. Liliosa, frantic and

angry, yelled, "Turn it off! Shut it down!"

However, nobody paid her any heed. Liliosa ran to the public screen, desperately searching for a switch, but

despite her efforts, the live stream wouldn't stop. She had forgotten that she had arranged for the live stream

through Cactus, who wasn't present, and the room was fitted with a hidden camera.

Liliosa, in tears, turned angrily towards Jasper, "Look at what your wonderful daughter has done! She plotted

against my son, and you're just watching? You causedto lose Annie before, and now your daughter is ruining

my son?" "How have | ever wronged you? I've always supported everything you wanted, but how have you

treated me?"

"With so many people here, your daughter has brought Mack to this, how is he supposed to face people? How

am | supposed to face people?"

"Enough!" Jasper roared, "You keep saying Tina trapped Mack! Then why was he in Tina's dressing room, which

even Jared Farrell, her fiancé, hasn't entered? What was he doing there?"

Jasper's expression darkened, "He went into Tina's dressing room to do what? Where did the voice at the start of

the live stream cfrom? Do you really think I've been oblivious all these years?"

Muff and Annabelle stood by, silently observing Liliosa. It was clear to any observer that Mack had sought

revenge against Tina but had instead fallen into his own trap. "He deserves no sympathy," they thought.

"Why can't he enter her dressing room? He's her cousin, calling her out is not inappropriate?" Liliosa scoffed

bitterly, "I see now, you never cared for us, mother and son."

Facing Tina, Liliosa hissed venomously, "You wretch, it's all your fault. Why didn't you stay in the countryside?

Why cback to Ashbury, back to the Reed family? You're a calamity, the reason Annie can't cback."

Her accusations grew more fervent, bordering on hysteria. Audrey Woodwind, unable to bear it any longer, spoke

up, "Aren't you being too harsh? In the Reed family, who doesn't give way to you? And about Tina's room, |

wouldn't dare enter, let alone Mack. From the start, you've targeted Tina, and what happened last twas his

own fault."

"And this is Tina's home, why shouldn't she return? If Annie's loss wasn't Tina's fault, isn't it unfair to blher

for everything?"

"Shut up!" Liliosa shouted, "You little girl, what right do you have to speak?"

"I'm just telling the truth! Besides, you claim Tina trapped Mack, do you have any proof?" Audrey challenged.

"You!" Liliosa was at a loss for words.

She had no evidence; the plot was meant to target Tina.

"There's no evidence! But | do!" Suddenly, Vivienne, who had been silent, spoke up.
